Naruto: Rise To The Top

Ryuu arrived at the Senju clan area and went straight to Tsunade's house.

On his way to Tsunade's house, he met many members of the Senju clan, some of them ignored him and some greeted him with a smile, but the majority of the younger generation looked at him with hostility when they saw the symbol of the Uchiha clan on his back.

Ryuu ignored the hostile looks, when he was at the academy he would drive Kushina home after lessons more than once so he got used to this difference in looks at him.

When he arrived at Tsunade's house, he knocked on the door and waited, after waiting for a while the door opened and Kushina came out.

"Ryuu, did you come back from the Test already? I heard from Mikoto that the Test will last for weeks." Kushina was surprised as she was expecting him to appear in a few weeks.

"I already finished the Test and got to sign a contract with them." Ryuu happily spoke with a smile and was proud that he passed an Test that no one else has passed before in such a short time.

"Ryuu, is this your summoning, can I carry it?" Kushina noticed the little fox on Ryuu's shoulder, and when she saw the cute fox's shape, her eyes sparkled. Sayuri's looks are cute and adorable, anyone who sees her will be impressed with her looks.

"Get away from me I'm not a pet, don't look at me like that" When Kushina reached out her hands to try to hold Sayuri, Sayuri avoided her hands and screamed in annoyance.

Sayuri wouldn't allow strangers to hold her, only her family could do that and she wouldn't even allow Ryuu to hold her even though he signed a contract with them let alone someone she just met.

"I don't consider you a pet, just let me hold you for a while, and I'll leave you then, I promise" Kushina didn't give up and tried to grab Sayuri again.

After Sayuri avoided Kushina's hands, she smiled an evil smile and said, "I'll let you hold me for hours, but only if you catch me first."

"I agree, don't regret it later" Kushina was happy with what Sayuri said so she quickly agreed and then tried to catch her.

"Hehehehe, if you try as much as you want, you won't catch me." Sayuri laughed and started running away, and Kushina ran after her as fast as she could.

"Kushina, I don't think you have a cha...." Ryuu wanted to tell Kushina that she had no chance of catching Sayuri, but they started running away before he could finish his words.

'She should've listened to me first,' Ryuu sighed after they both got away.

"Kushina, who's knocking, why are you late at the door?" Ryuu heard Tsunade's voice from inside the house and moments later appeared in front of the door.

When Tsunade came out of the house, she saw Ryuu in front of the door, but she didn't see Kushina anywhere, "Ryuu, did you finish the Test already, where did Kushina go?"

Ryuu smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, I passed the test. As for Kushina, she's stalking and trying to catch my summoning."

Tsunade was confused and asked Ryuu, "Why does Kushina want to go after your summoning?"

"Because she thought my summoning was cute so Kushina wanted to hold her, but she refused to let Kushina touch her…..you will understand how Kushina feels when you see my summoning." Ryuu explained everything to Tsunade but she was not convincing so he told her to wait until she saw Sayuri.

"Do you need me to help you with anything?" Tsunade asked, it was the first time Ryuu came here at night, so I thought he needed help with something.

"During the test, I had some injuries, so I came here because I need you to help me check them out." Ryuu spoke while pointing at his injuries.

"Okay come in, I'll check your injuries" Tsunade said as she entered the house.

"Welcome to my house, Ryuu-kun." Mito was inside the house, and when she saw Ryuu entering, she greeted him.

Mito had long chestnut hair, black pupilless eyes. Her hair was arranged in buns and had a diamond shape resembling the power of a hundred seal on her forehead, and she wore a simple, loose kimono closed with a simple dark colored obi.

It has been ten days since he became a disciple of Tsunade. During this period, he became acquainted with Mito Uzumaki and made some friendship with Nawaki Senju.

"Hello Mito-sama," Ryuu said respectfully to the First Hokage's wife.

"Don't be too formal. You can call me Mito-Basan," Mito said with a smile.

"Sorry to interrupt but I have to check Ryuu's injury," Tsunade said as she drags Ryuu to her room.

Ryuu thought that Tsunade's room would be full of decorations and furniture or something, but when he entered her room he saw a simple room with little decorations unlike what he imagined of the girl's room full of decorations. But he can smell the sweet fragrance of Tsunade in the room.

"Take off your shirt. Let me look at the injuries." Tsunade said seriously when they entered the room. Hearing Tsunade's words, he took off his shirt and the bandages covering the wounds. When he finished removing them, Ryuu's body was full of slightly healed wounds.

Tsunade approached Ryuu and started examining his injuries and spoke with a sigh, "The person who treated you earlier did a very bad job. If you didn't come to me, the injuries might leave scars on your whole body. Tell me about the tests you did, while I treat the wounds properly."

Ryuu nodded and told her about everything from the moment he used the Reverse Summoning Technique until he finished the tests.

When Tsunade learned that Ryuu's injuries were caused by an illusion, she was shocked that she hadn't heard anything of this before.

An hour later, Tsunade properly treated all of Ryuu's injuries so that the injuries did not leave any scars on his body. Then they both go out to look for Kushina because she hasn't come home yet.

Ryuu used chakra sense to find her faster. When they got to her whereabouts, he saw her sitting on the ground breathing hard, her body was full of dirt and there were some leaves stuck to her hair and her face was tired and there was a small fox half an arm away from her that was provoking Kushina to move. She laughs sinisterly, "Ha-ha-ha-ha I'm so close to you, why don't you try to catch me again?"

When Kushina saw that the fox was half a meter away from her, she had some hope of catching her so she started pretending that she was tired and that she was not interested in provoking the fox, in order to make her come closer. She succeeded in starting the fox getting closer to her and she was half an arm away from her.

Once the fox got close enough, Kushina crossed her physical limits by moving too fast. She was sure to catch the fox this time, but what she didn't expect was that the fox could dodge her very easily.

"Haha, you really think I didn't know what you were up to?" Sayuri laughed as her tail swung lightly.

"If I don't catch you now, I will in the future when I get stronger," Kushina said insistently, vowing to never give up and become stronger until she catches Sayuri and avenges what happened today.
